Motorcycles are an economical and convenient means of transportation and are loved by the general public.
However, motorcycles are characterized by instability and non-enclosed driving operating parts.
Motorcyclists should pay more attention to safe driving and master the necessary driving skills.
Why you should wear a safety helmet when driving a motorcycle?
In 1956, a famous motorcycle racer, William Snell, died in a motorcycle race held in California.
After that, the relevant research institutions in the United States listed the design of safety helmets as a key research project.
Experts after repeated experiments proved that the head in a traffic accident when hit hard, helmets can effectively protect the head.
The helmet is smooth and hemispherical, can make the impact of the impact dispersion and absorb the impact, and the deformation of the helmet, or cracks and pads, and play a buffering role, can also absorb part of the energy.
According to calculations: the human head can generally withstand the impact of 450 kg role.
Safety protective helmets with these several functions can reduce the impact force of about 1850 kg, so the actual effect on the head of the impact force of only about 400 kg.
In addition, the distinctive and eye-catching color of the safety helmet can also attract the attention of the other driver when meeting or overtaking.
So the role of the safety helmet is very important.
Therefore, all countries in the world require safety helmets to be worn on motorcycles, and some countries even have to wear helmets on bicycles.
For the sake of your life and the well-being of your family, wear a helmet on your motorcycle before you go on the road.
